[Nether Animal]

One of his best early showings... before he only trained for the Olympia.

One of the best all time. Incredible legendary bodybuilder. Shitty person. Sad!

Very shitty.  I remember talking with him after he won the 1990 Arnold (but later to be disqualified due to Winstrol usage).  Great physique, fine poser and he always came in shape, however he's a sociopath, a narcissist and an ego maniac.

He was the first pro I ever met back in 1996. He was prepping for the O. I've met him many times since. Shitty person. Well overdue for an assbeating.

By today's standards he isn't really all that short, when you think about it. More like lower-average. Nowadays we have guys like Nicolas Vullioud who are literally like 5 feet tall flat.

why the long face?

Wiggs what did he do to make you have that opinion of him?

Pretty much flawless. All through his career.

Shawn thinks the world revolves around him which means he believes it's round

[Fortress]

One of bodybuilding's all-time best and a really cool fella.

Always cool and cordial with me. Also, very professional.

5'6"-5'7" isn't that short compared to the history of pros.

GUY looked good in any pose,photographed perfectly,posed like no other,and one of the few pros who looked great in crab mm and of course his trademark hands clasped..dex has same distinction ..

[Cableguy]

My first bodybuilding show. I worked right down the street from the Ironman offices and became good friends with John Balik and the crew. John got me and my friends 5th row center tickets.

Shawn looked great but a little smooth. Mike Ashley was a deserving second. Vince Commerford was third.

5'6"-5'7" isn't that short compared to the history of pros.

It is when you have Mr Olympias from 1984-1991 (Lee Haney 5'11"), 1992-1997 (dorian yates 5'10), & 1998-2005 (ronnie coleman 5'11") all minimum 4"taller than him.

comerford was another shorter but thick'in a lee priest mode'look,and was doing well top 5 in all smaller shows and he jumped ship yr later to wbf

[Hulkster]

Vince Commerford had insane arms.

[Cableguy]

He sure did. Looked great overall. His end was sad though.

 I'm always surprised someone did not rip that wiggs wig off his head.

I always hear on this site that he's a douche bag but no one gives a reason why. He is an amazing complete bodybuilder. His first video "To The Extreme" was the first bodybuilding tape that showed actual training instead of staged that was so common at the time. It's still one of the best training videos I've ever seen. Picture perfect squats too.

He's hacked off a few over the years, but who hasn't? I've dealt with him several times. No issues whatsoever. Even when just shaking his hand and saying hello. Well spoken, smart and very professional.

That VHS of which you speak rules. Love it. And like you say, his training is pristine. Fantastic squatter. And he was strong.
